Help! in Perilous Times

By Bishop Hattie Dancil-Small

There are times when many feels like they just could not take another day of sorrow; times when some wanted to throw in the towel. Those who felt like all hope was gone. The chapters of this Book are meant to encourage you to keep pushing forward. and to just hold on to the promises of God. There is help for you during the most challenging times of one’s life. I believe that this book will revive you and get you back to your purpose. It is the desire of this book to inspire you to move forward in life and to hold on to hope. Hope is a feeling of expectation of obtainment or fulfillment. Hope is a desire for something good in the future. This book will bring you or someone you know who feel overwhelmed and who are struggling in life both healing and wholeness. This book encourages you to stay hopeful in the midst of doubt. As you read this book, allow God to guide you through the plans he has for you. Plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Your help is on the way!

FORWARD

I have known Bishop Hattie Dancil-Small for a very long time and continue to interact with her on many levels. I interact with her as a dear friend; as a fellow Pastor having a passion for the evangelization of our city; as a student at PCIM Bible College and Seminary as one of our very first graduates, one who graduated with honors; and finally as a mentor.

It comes as no surprise to me that Bishop Dancil-Small would undertake to write this book entitled: Help in Perilous Times. I say this because being an encourager comes supernaturally natural for her. This is who she is at the very core of her being—to constantly encourage those around her, offer hope, empower, and uplift everyone. This is what you will find in the pages of her new book.

Perilous times are times of great risks, great dangers; times that are hazardous. Dear friends, these words precisely describe the times we are living in at this moment. The population at large is beside itself with fear, anxiety, and frustration. Even the members of the body of Christ find themselves in the same mode of life as the people outside the body of Christ. Almost everyone is hesitant to venture out of their places of quarantine because of the risks of potentially being exposed to the dangerous coronavirus. But there is help, and there is hope, and there is encouragement!

That is what Bishop Dancil-Small brings to you in
